I move:

That, in the opinion of the Senate, the following is a matter of urgency:

The need for Prime Minister Albanese to restore Operation Sovereign Borders to its original design under the former Coalition government, including re-introducing temporary protection visas, to send a clear message to people smugglers that Australia takes the protection of its borders seriously.

I thank my colleagues who supported discussion of this motion, including my friends on the crossbench. Thank you very much for that. I appreciate it. Why is this motion being moved, Madam Acting Deputy President?
